Hotels, guest houses and holiday lets need rooms back in use quickly, so most of our work is done in a single visit. We can work around your bookings.
Letting agents often send us photos straight from the inventory. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.
How we handle sink repair in Finsbury
It’s not just the colour we match, it’s the gloss, because a dull patch on a shiny basin stands out. We polish each repair to the basin’s shine. Common call-outs are for knocks from hair straighteners and chips around the rim, in enamelled basins, antique & period basins and vanity unit basins.
Whatever the size of the job, you get the same one-year guarantee.

Honest limits
We’d rather lose a job than do one that won’t last, so here’s what a repair can’t put right:
- Leaking taps or wastes (a plumber’s job)
- Widespread crazing
- A basin cracked through and leaking
If in doubt, send pictures and we’ll say what we think.
Materials we repair
- Belfast and butler sinks
- Enamelled basins
- Ceramic & vitreous china basins
- Vanity unit basins
- Antique & period basins
Materials and what they mean for the repair
Composite and resin
Many vanity units have resin or composite basins. Chips and scratches can be filled and matched, and the colour is mixed to suit.
Period and antique
Period basins frequently have marks and character worth keeping. We repair them sympathetically.
Should I try a DIY kit first?
We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs often look fine at first and then fail, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.
If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, and do not use it until it has fully cured. If it fails, we can still put it right.
FAQs for Finsbury
Can you repair a cracked basin?
Frequently. Send us pictures and we will tell you.
Can you repair several things at once?
Yes, and it’s frequently cheaper. Just add the extra items to your photos and you will get one combined price.
Will you remove the sink?
Not at all. The surrounding area is protected and we work in place.
I’m a tenant. Can you help?
Yes, but check with your landlord or agent first. Landlords are frequently glad to have it sorted before the end of a tenancy.
What happens next?
We come back with a fixed quote. There is no obligation to book.
What happens if you find more damage?
If we find something the pictures didn’t show, we explain it first. You decide whether to go ahead.

Yes. Our accreditations include CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. The full list is on our accreditations page.
Is the work guaranteed?
Yes: twelve months. If there’s a problem with the work in that time, we come back and put it right.
How to look after the repair
Nothing complicated is needed, just a few sensible habits:
- Ask a plumber not to overtighten fittings
- Keep heavy bottles off the rim
- Avoid abrasive pads
- Steer clear of harsh chemicals
A quick wipe after use helps, and steer clear of harsh chemicals.
Cracks by the tap holes can grow, so get it looked at early. If it’s leaking, turn off the water to the basin until it’s checked.
